"I was very pleased with everything that took place on my procedure day. Dr.Thyssen' performed my procedure. He has great bedside manner, and made me feel I was in good hands. The staff involved with the procedure was great and showed genuine concern for me. I was so impressed and touched by the whole staff, from the registration check-in, to the pre-procedure staff, to the aftercare staff. I appreciate the care and effort given to make everything comfortable for me. I saw the same care and genuineness with other patients I observed. This is a great team of medical professionals making a difference in the care of their patients. I hope the staff realizes that what they do and how they do it, has a great impact on people lives. It may be just a job to some, but every day working with people is an opportunity to help and serve, and that's what they do. Good hearts doing great things."

"Dr Thyssen and the surgical staff from AEC were very efficient and worked together as a very pleasant team. I would have given 5 stars except my phone call to SIG a week before the colonoscopy almost made me cancel. I called SIG to get a better clarification as to the pre-colonosocpy diet. Whoever I talked to seemingly got annoyed with me asking questions and I was told to stick to no seeds or I they wouldn't be able to do the procedure. How does anyone know they consider bananas to have seeds unless it's clearly stated. I found a diet sheet online from a credible university and followed that. Please include a diet sheet for patients to follow - people's interpretation of peel and and seeds vary. AEC didn't call me until the day before the case to pre-register me. For those two items I'm knocking off a star but the surgical team were the best."

"Clinical excellence + compassion and genuine caring wrapped up into one human being is the best way I can describe Dr. Thyssen. He is a skilled GI doc who listens, asks questions and works with you to make sure you are getting great care. I am a nurse and really picky about the doctors I choose for myself and my family - Dr. Thyssen is fabulous!"

"When Tonya first took me back for my colonoscopy, I was concerned. She was not friendly or accommodating. She was harsh, hurried, and appeared very annoyed that I was there. After that introduction, the people got much better. The rest of the staff were friendly and nice. Dr Thyssen is always pleasant and I do have faith in his procedures."

"Dr Thyssen is a compassionate and friendly physician. He took the time to explain everything to my mom and myself, and made us feel comfortable with the upcoming procedure. The employees at SIG were all easy to deal with, understanding and made my mom's experience comfortable and stress free. SIG has appointments and procedures all in one building which makes for ease of patient care. There's no running the gauntlet of hospital corridors, registration and bouncing from one area to another. I would highly recommend Dr Thyssen and his staff."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Thyssen for over 30 years. The professionalism on display in his practice is eclipsed only by Dr. Thyssen himself. I cannot imagine being able to find a more compassionate, dedicated person of medicine anywhere. He seems as much a friend as a doctor."

"I am a long-time patient of Dr. Thyssen, so today’s positive experience was no surprise. The worst part of colonoscopy is the prep, but even it has improved over the years. The staff at SIG were friendly, professional, competent and prompt. The procedure was accomplished without discomfort and results shared with me before I was discharged. Dr. Thyssen is an extraordinary physician!"

"The SIG team is the Best!!! I don't normally do reviews but I had too for this great group...I have worked in Healthcare for 20 years ( so I've seen it all) and I can say that Dr. Thyssen and his team went above and beyond my expectations! This was my first experience with Dr Thyssen, my appointment / procedure went seamlessly from beginning to the end, this group is on top of their game!!! They were prompt with scheduling, my procedure , check up and results. They also were able to provide pricing for the procedure(prior to it being done) which eased my mind. All of the staff were very kind too. It's very difficult to find a doctor, let alone, a team of knowledgable doctors who truly listen to their patients and have a great bedside manner. Thank You, to the SIG team & Dr Thyssen for a great experience! You guys are truly a diamond in the rough these days!!!"
